Water Bottle Challenge
2021-02-19
Better Than Fish On Fridays Lent Challenge
Water bottles are available for pick up at church through this Friday. Each bottle has a label with someone for whom to pray. The challenge is to use the bottle on Friday, February 19th, and each time you take a drink say a prayer for whoever is on your water bottle. Once it’s empty, you may want to refill the bottle and continue to pray for them throughout the week.

Friday Lent Challenge: World Day of Prayer
2021-03-05
Historically Christians have given things up during Lent to focus on the Lord. The most enduring of these practices is giving up meat on Fridays, hence the origin of the Friday night fish fry (which probably hasn’t done a whole lot for our spiritual lives). Let’s try something better this year and do something Better Than Fish on Friday during Lent.
FRIDAY CHALLENGE: World Day of Prayer is a global ecumenical movement led by Christian women who welcome you to join in prayer and action for peace and justice and is celebrated annually in over 170 countries on the first Friday in March. The challenge for this Friday, March 5th, is to pray for:

ZOE
Extreme Tour
Compassion International
Operation Christmas Child
Ken and Karol Christie (missionaries we’ve supported through this congregation for many years)
All missions/missionaries that that we have supported in the past.
